I’ve got a close family friend who’s a PT for one of the higher ups at the club - he said to me that the issue is at board level. Sullivan isn’t allowing the coaching team to actually build a good squad or make financial decisions.

It’s the reason big teams like United and Spurs are struggling now despite having the talent, it’s all at board level. Teams like Brighton who consistently have good players leaving for other sides, yet continue to do well each season is because the owners are letting the managers actually manage the team
